    Trade Deadline Approach

    If we trade Paxton for Cabrera we would be the sellers and they would be fools.

    Trade Deadline Approach

    The only thing I want in return for Paxton is to get Paxton back.

    Trade Deadline Approach

    Any one of those guys might get you a top-50 or so prospect, but none of them are going to get you a top 10 prospect. Nobody is trading a guy who looks like a real star for one of those guys. So what you're really getting is more depth. But what's the value in more depth? How many lineup spots...

    Trade Deadline Approach

    I think Team Stand Pat is underestimating the challenges the Red Sox will have keeping all our prospies together. The following prospects from Fangraphs top 46 Red Sox prospects list will need to be added to the 40 man roster by December or risk being lost to Rule V draft: #8 Shane Drohan #10...

    It's the halfway mark. Where we at?

    At a minimum they should be willing to move any prospects who are about to contribute to a Rule V roster crunch. Shane Drohan, Wilkelman Gonzalez and Angel Bastardo can't all be kept for example you'd think some combination of those 3 guys could bring in a quality major league player. And those...

    It's the halfway mark. Where we at?

    FWIW when I said two I really meant Story and Sale. The Bello-Paxton-Sale rotation being a monster is derivative of Sale coming back healthy and effective and the Whitlock/Houck thing would be nice but I don't think it's critical. Although of course "nothing else bad happening" is really a third...

    It's the halfway mark. Where we at?

    It's weird that people are complaining about the Red Sox relative record against teams below .500 when the obvious converse is that the team is 35-29 against teams at .500 or above, which is the second best record in the American League in that category and third in MLB. That is more relevant to...

    Also I think his defense is good and I should know, I've watched him for two whole innings

    The 2023 Trade Deadline: Scenarios

    I think what I like about him is that when I play OOTP I always make sure to draft a super fast utility infielder to be the designated pinch runner (ideally also a guy you don't mind starting if you need to) and I think the strategy is super effective. They all look immortal in their prime but...

    Young, scrappy and hungry: when does Hamilton get his shot?

    Apparently he will be in the Metrodome where it happens today: I've been looking forward to a player with game changing speed since the new rules were announced.

    Extreme Makeover: The Jarren Duran Edition

    The ball hit the ground near the first basemen but presumably kept rolling after that.

    Game 1 vs. Philadelphia—Just Win

    Tough to get too excited about an offensive strategy that would never, ever work with Embiid on the floor.
